WALT: calculate the volume of cubes and
cuboids
- Count the squares- Use the formula:
- V = L x h x w
![Page 2: WALT: calculate the volume of cubes and cuboids](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012513/618c18bcc86b502d6f0eb140/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
The ‘volume’ is the amount of space taken up by a 3D shape.
Formula:Volume = length x width x height

Look at the cuboid and identify the 3 measurements that we will use to calculate volume: height, width and length.

Just as with area in the lessons last week, if the 3D shape is on a grid or made up of cubes, you can just count them to find the volume!
1 cube = 1 unit3
Volume is measured in cubed units or units cubed!

1st layer
The other 3 layers all have the same volume as they aremade up of the same number of cubes.
Therefore…
16 x 4 = 64cm3

![Page 21: WALT: calculate the volume of cubes and cuboids](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012513/618c18bcc86b502d6f0eb140/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Answer:As this shape is a cube, we know that all of the sides are equal length.
10m3
Volume = l × w × h= 10cm × 10cm × 10cm= 100cm × 10cm= 1000cm3
![Page 22: WALT: calculate the volume of cubes and cuboids](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012513/618c18bcc86b502d6f0eb140/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Find the missing length. The volume of the cuboid is 48cm3.

3cm
Volume = l × w × h
Therefore:
48cm3 = l x w x h
48cm3 = 8cm x 3cm x h
48cm ÷ 8cm = 6cm
6cm ÷ 3cm = 2cm
So the missing length is 2cm3
48cm3

Calculate the volume of the compound shape below:
Remember the strategy you used for area of compound shapes and do the same thing!
Divide the shape into two regular shapes…

Answer:
Part APart B
Part A
Volume = l × w × h
Volume = 5cm x 15cm x 10cm
Volume = 75cm x 10cm
Volume = 750cm3
Part B
Volume = l × w × h
Volume = 5cm x 5cm x 5cm
Volume = 25cm x 5cm
Volume = 125cm3
Total volume of shape: 750cm3 + 125cm3 = 875cm3
